Launch Google Maps app

Question

I\'m trying to launch Google maps from my application. I\'m using:

GeoPoint center = _mapView.getMapCenter(); 

Uri uri = Uri.parse(\"geo:\"+center.getLatitudeE         


        

Answer 1

You need to divide by 1E6 since GeoPoint doesn't return a double.

Uri uri = Uri.parse("geo:"+(center.getLatitudeE6()/1E6)+","+(center.getLongitudeE6()/1E6));

I like this way personally where daddr would be (center.getLatitudeE6()/1E6)+","+(center.getLongitudeE6()/1E6)

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr="+saddr+"&daddr="+daddr+"&hl=en")));
